Hi gang,

TIA if this is a dumb oversight on my part. I filed a bug report on this, but
I'm trying to get this up and working since I migrated this company away from
Windows boxes on the backend. Having a working backup system would let me
sleep at night.

Trying to get a Sony A300C AIT-1 changer working for the purposes of Amanda.

You're missing the ch(4) driver.

Put:

device ch

In your kernel config file, re-run config, recompile, reinstall and reboot.

Then you can move tapes around with chio(1) (or amanda).
